PHOENIX - Arizonar -- Snell & Wilmer is pleased to announce that Andrew M. Jacobs (https://www.swlaw.com/people/andrew_jacobs) has been appointed to the Arizona Court of Appeals, Division One (https://azgovernor.gov/office-arizona-governor/...) by Governor Katie Hobbs.
"I am honored to appoint Andrew to the Court of Appeals, Division One based on his deep experience, strong leadership in the legal community, and commitment to upholding the law," said Governor Hobbs. "He has argued dozens of civil appeals, and has worked tirelessly to improve Arizona's courts, including through the many commissions and committees to which the Arizona Supreme Court has appointed him."
The Arizona Legislature created the Arizona Court of Appeals in 1964 to reduce the workload of the Arizona Supreme Court, which up to that point was the state's only appellate court. As the state's intermediate appellate court, the Court of Appeals has two divisions, Division One, based in Phoenix, and Division Two, based in Tucson. Division One came into existence with three judges and gradually was expanded to its current number of 16 judges as the state's population increased. Division One decides cases from eight of Arizona's 15 counties. Judges appointed by the Governor who are subject to judicial performance review serve their first term on the court, after which voters decide through retention elections if they are retained to serve on the bench for additional terms.
